A combination of heavy work requirements and some web work as webmaster of KerryLied.com means I haven’t had time to write much here.
My apologies to regular readers and hopefully this situation will change soon.
The Boston Globe just happened to finish its story about some discrepancies in George Bush’s National Guard Record the same day that 60 minutes just happened to get a guy (Democrat fixer) to say that he helped Bush get into the National Guard.
We have such an amazing group out there watching for stories. Did they find this in 1994, when Bush ran? No? Why the heck not?
How about 2000? We know they were messing around with the records then. Did they find today’s allegations? No? Why not?
Apparently it takes them three tries to find something. This is the gang who couldn’t write straight.
And, of course, the timing doesn’t pass the laugh test. The Boston Globe is lying through their pointy little teeth about their timing.
This “September Surprise” has been waiting for, well, September. It obviously was long planned.
Ironically, in a truly logical world, none of this would matter. We have had 3 1/2 years to evaluate Bush. Are we going to learn more about him from a few missed drills in the early 70s? Not hardly.
On the other hand, Kerry has virtually no record and ran on his Vietnam service. Those who discovered that he had fabricated documents and shirked his duty - those who had served with him- had every reason to bring it up.
Likewise, his pro-communist activities after he left Vietnam bear scrutiny because they slandered millions of veterans, including myself. Furthermore, they open a door into his character.
But it isn’t a logical world. It’s a gotcha world. The Texas National Guard Gotcha was easily prediictable and the media was ready to do its part: attack the Republican.
If there is anyone on the planet who believes the main stream media even attempts to be unbiased…. phone home.
For Zonies only…
Zonitics has a list of primary recommendations. I haven’t even looked (as you may have noticed, things have been busy), but Edward generally has good political taste.
Primaries? I didn’t even know we had any coming. Too busy goin’ after Kerry.
